Could you build this?
No This is a Luma3DS sysmodule that records the 3DS screen and encodes video on the console itself. That requires low-level homebrew C/C++ work, hardware knowledge, and the 3DS's constrained memory and CPU.
What it would actually take: The build needs the Luma3DS sysmodule framework, direct access to the 3DS GPU and framebuffers, and an on-device H.264/MP4 encoder that fits in limited RAM. Wi-Fi transfer and QR pairing sit on top. This needs embedded developers who know the 3DS hardware and homebrew toolchain.
